Description: Piero Fornasetti (Italian, 1913-1988), designer Fornasetti Milano, manufacturer TITLE Coaster YEAR 1965 MEDIUM Porcelain with transfer-print and glaze MATERIALS/TECHNIQUES TECHNIQUES Porcelain with transfer-print and glaze DIMENSIONS Diameter: 10.2 cm (4 inches) SIGNATURE / INSCRIPTION / MARKS Marks: Adamo ed Eva, Piero Fornasetti, 1965, Made in Italy Fornasetti's artistic philosophy emphasized the production of series over one-of-a-kind pieces, reflecting his commitment to democratizing art. A central motif in his work was the "variations," notably exemplified in the iconic "Tema e Variazioni" series featuring over 400 renditions of opera singer Lina Cavalieri's face. His creative genius extended across different mediums, from furniture to paintings, demonstrating a coherent stylistic code. Although Fornasetti faced challenges adapting to evolving design trends in the '60s and '70s, his legacy was eventually rediscovered and celebrated through exhibitions and publications. His fusion of classicism, surrealism, and metaphysical art, combined with his commitment to drawing as an innovative tool, cemented his influence on design and decoration. Piero Fornasetti's enduring impact continues through the work of his son Barnaba and admirers worldwide. These are very hard to come across pieces and all are beautifully decorated by the famous artist.
